In the season leading up to Easter we want to behold Jesus Christ. So we are studying His death and resurrection as recounted in chapters 23 and 24 of the Gospel of Luke.

In these final chapters Luke highlights the rejection of Jesus and His ministry. He’s accused of insurrection and of being guilty misleading people; he’s mocked as prophet and king. Yet through it all, we see that this Jesus is indeed the Christ, Son of God, the King, who suffers and even dies for His people. Like the people described in these chapters, the claims of Jesus confronts you and demands response—Who is Jesus to you?
